Ian J. Goodfellow (born 1987

generative adversarial network (GAN). Goodfellow co-wrote, as the first author, the textbook Deep Learning (2016)[2] and wrote the chapter on deep learning in the authoritative textbook of the field of artificial intelligence, Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach[3][4] (used in more than 1,500 universities in 135 countries).[5]

Education

Goodfellow obtained his B.S. and M.S. in computer science from Stanford University under the supervision of Andrew Ng (co-founder and head of Google Brain), and his Ph.D. in machine learning from the Université de Montréal in April 2014, under the supervision of Yoshua Bengio and Aaron Courville.[6][7] Goodfellow's thesis is titled Deep learning of representations and its application to computer vision.[8][9]

Career

After graduation, Goodfellow joined Google as part of the Google Brain research team.[10] In March 2016 he left Google to join the newly founded OpenAI research laboratory.[11] Barely 11 months later, in March 2017, Goodfellow returned to Google Research[12] but left again in 2019.[13]

In 2019 Goodfellow joined

DeepMind as a research scientist.[15]

Research

Goodfellow is best known for inventing

deepfakes and generate video-based disinformation.[16][17]

At Google, Goodfellow developed a system enabling Google Maps to automatically transcribe addresses from photos taken by Street View cars[18][19] and demonstrated security vulnerabilities of machine learning systems.[20][21]

Recognition

In 2017, Goodfellow was cited in MIT Technology Review's 35 Innovators Under 35.[22] In 2019, he was included in Foreign Policy's list of 100 Global Thinkers.[23]
